Yonge / Bond Redevelopment, Richmond Hill

Yonge / Bond Redevelopment, Richmond Hill

From assembled parcels to a viable stacked-townhome neighbourhood

Project Overview

GEM Enterprise supported the assessment of a fully assembled 3.17-acre site fronting Yonge Street (four × 50’ parcels, ~200’ total) with ~365’ Bond Street frontage. The brief targeted ~116 stacked townhome units across: 11, 3, 5 Bond Crescent and 12850, 12860, 12864, 12868, 12874, 12890 Yonge Street. We tested block arrangements, circulation, parking and servicing strategies for stacked typologies and prepared an engineering risk register to guide acquisition.
